     History
    This bridge was originally owned by the Danville & Western Railroad, which was later absorbed by the Southern Railway Company. It is at the end of Norfolk Southern's "DW Line" between Danville, VA and Eden, NC. The track is out of service past the siding at Miller Brewing, so no trains cross the bridge anymore.
     Media Coverage
    None
     Future Plans
    It will probably sit and rot and collapse into the river one day unless Norfolk Southern formally abandons the line, in which case the tracks will be ripped up and they and the bridge will be sold for scrap.
